WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?

Many techniques and martial arts do not achieve the desired results during an attack because they can be embellished, or too complex for the average person to apply in a real life scenario. The effectiveness you often see is achieved through practice, conditioning and sparring that has taken place usually for no less than 4 years.

Martial Arts should not always be considered self defence. It is an art. Some of the systems within martial arts can be applied to self defense, while others are simply a way of life for those that practice. Please keep in mind: we speak from experience! The OPPS System Founder, Vincent May, in addition, has a background in martial arts that includes Muay Thai, Karate, Jeet June Do and Boxing and assisting organizations with criminal aprehension.

Our belief at On Point Protection Services is that you need to learn to defend yourself - at any moment! You need to add these life protection skills and knowledge to your defence skillset now. (Not 4 years from now!)

The reality is, not every attacker is going to be standing still. They will attack at full strength and speed, and you will not always be prepared… There is a chance you are not wearing running shoes or functional clothing, you’re not “warmed up”, and your mind will be elsewhere.

Securing your own personal safety (as well as the safety of those around you) if a perpetrator unexpectedly enters your personal space - whether it be at home, in your vehicle, or at a public park - it is not something that most people prepare for on a daily basis. Is there a firearm at your side during a surprise attack, or is it tucked in a safe down the hall? Are you even legally allowed to shoot someone? Do you have any other nearby weapons in case the assailant aggressively lunges at you? 

The protection training we offer is simple, yet very effective. OPPS wants to make sure you have options to protect yourself when push comes to shove. Whether it is with a firearm, weapon or your bare hands. All we ask, is that you commit to the course and put in the work!

We stand by the statement that ‘it takes a bigger man to walk away from a fight, than to start one’, but there is a very big difference between “fighting” and self protection - and when your life is in danger, walking away might not be a possibility.

At On Point Protection Services, we train for the practicality of every day situations with a system that is designed for simple, real-world application. Using the Zero Strategy, you will learn to assess your options and avoid potential life-threatening situations.
